About our Programs

Keeping the promise to help kids with cancer and their families.

The hardships inflicted on families because of childhood cancer are often not quantifiable. The financial burden of increased expenses, while income may be decreased - due to reduced work hours or even unpaid, extended leave - can seem overwhelming. The stress reliever of a weekend of family fun is immeasurable. A sigh of relief knowing that the mortgage is paid for the month is another. Pinky Swear Foundation’s financial assistance and family experience programs provide help to these families in need.

Payments for bills: Utilities, childcare, and other unique family needs

Memorable experiences through family getaways: Worry-free, quality time together out of the hospital

Ability to stay with their sick child and reduce expenses: Convenient, stocked food pantries in hospitals
